construction in the Terrell Heights Historic District um at the corner of um Canon Street in Tennessee. The proposed design for the one-story residence reflects an orientation that is consistent with the predominant character of the streetscape, including
the existing patterns of spacing and massing. However, a few design aspects should be addressed to ensure a compatible new construction in the historic district. Therefore, staff recommends the following. that the uh request for a
certificate of appropriateness to construct a new residence at 1200 East Canon Street be approved subject to the following conditions. That the structure setback be adjusted to be in line with the historic structure at 1208 East Cannon. That the driveway be moved to
Tennessee Avenue to reflect a typical location of a driveway for corner lots. That the uncovered slab on the right elevation be removed from the porch. that the structure be raised to accommodate at least two seveninch risers for the porch to be consistent
with the historic character in the area and a porch section be submitted for review. That the boxed eaves be changed to open rafters to be consistent with eaves in the area. That all windows reflect a traditional one over one configuration and an additional window
be placed on the right side elevation. That the cladding material be changed to reflect a typical lap sighting material for the area. and that any adjustments made to the drawings be submitted to the development services department prior to the issuance of a certificate of appropriateness. This concludes the
staff report. Thank you, Laura. Do we have anyone in the chambers to speak on this case? Seeing none, we will move to the commissioners. Are there is there any discussion? Oh, are you here for the case?
Please approach the podium and state your name and address. Wait till you get to the >> I'm a friend of Milton Rodriguez, the one that is >> Okay, welcome. >> Step on the front. >> Would you mind speaking into the mic so
I can hear you? >> On the step in the front. Um he says that there's other neighbors nearby that doesn't have a step and he has some of the property address that doesn't have a step. So that's the reason why he didn't want to put a step on it.
>> Okay. Ask him if he is willing to work with staff on that issue. >> Okay. Okay. other all the other uh changes will be submitted to them. >> Okay.
>> Thank you. >> Thank you. >> Um okay. Uh anyone else here to speak on behalf of this property? All right. Are we ready for a motion? Make a motion

case. HLC-26-125 1028 East Cannon Street. All right. Your next case is also located in the Terrell Heights 1028 East Canon Street. Um the proposed one-story resident reflects an orientation that is consistent with the predominant
character of the streetscape including established patterns of spacing, massing and building orientation. And the proposed building segments and driveway location align with those historic structures along the block as well. Proposed registration including vinyl windows is generally compatible with
traditional window patterns found in the area. However, all standardized and small size windows should maintain two to one height to width ratio. In terms of materials, the proposed intra engineer lab siding is consistent with
the predominant character in the area. However, the proposed front door should be simplified to a standard door without glassing or transparent glass elements. Having regard to the forgoing staff requests
the following motion that the request of a property residence of 1028 is canon street be approved subject to the following conditions that all windows shall maintain a 21
height to width ratio and be limited to two types standard size and small size windows. Condition number two is additional windows be installed um on the left and right elevations. And the third one is that the front door
shall be revised to a standard door with no glassing or transparent glass elements and that any adjustment made to the drawings be submitted to development services department prior to the issuance of the certificate of appropriateness. Um this concludes that reports.

>> Thank you. Our third case is HCLC-26-131 for 1313 East Morningside Drive. Right. Good afternoon. Um, so this property is located 1313 East Morning Drive. Like mentioned before,
the proposal is a one-story residential that maintains a traditional orientation and reflects the established development patterns of the surrounding streetscapes. Um the uh parcel that you see right now on the screen 1309 East
Morningside Drive is non-contributing. Uh uh however the rest of the buildings on the block is contributing. Uh the design incorporates a rectangle building of in form um and it has a partial length front porch and a 612 gabled roof
pitch. um all of which are commonly uh are commonly found on this uh in this throughout this historic uh Morningside district. The proposed 12- foot uh with concrete drive um along the east
property boundary is consistent also with the uh district's driveway and parking patterns. The project the project also includes vinyl windows at 4 in trim um horizontal lap siding composite roof shingles um that reflect
the materials and architectural character commonly found within the neighborhood. Overall, the proposed uh residence is compatible with the historic Morning Side district uh design guidelines, the established character of the surrounding neighborhood. Um, as
well throughout the review process, the applicant worked closely with staff to refine some of the design and ensure compliances compliance and uh with the applicable design guidelines in compatibility with the historic context. Um, with that said, staff does recommend
approval for the this 1313 East Morning Side Drive. Thank you. Do we have anyone in the chamber to speak on this uh case? Seeing none, commissioners, are we ready for any discussion or are we ready to make a motion?
>> Um, I've got a question. Is there any kind of fence or anything along the railroad? >> There is no proposed fence on >> safety precautions that they have to adhere to being next to a railroad line. >> There are no um proposed fence uh on the
site plan that they have currently. I'll go back to the site plan so you guys can see it. Seems strange to me that you'd have a railroad right next to a house like this and not have some form of protection.
Doesn't even look like there's fencing along the railroad. >> Could you go back to that the photograph? >> Sorry. Okay. Say that again. >> Can you go back to the photograph of the lot? >> Yes. It seems that there's one in the back. Do you see that?
>> Like where? >> Okay. No, >> never mind. >> I'm looking at this property. The property next door to it. I mean to to my I own property immediately adjacent to the fourth fourth and western rail line that's
residential and about 500 feet of it and there's no to my knowledge there's no city requirement to have a I actually do not have a fence um on the rear part of my property. It's not required by any city code >> and they're usually kind of built up on a burm so it's kind of a natural I mean
kids can get on them anywhere but yeah there's no I don't think there's any fencing requirement by my house either. I'm I'm just curious from a liability standpoint how the you know there isn't some like being on a freeway there's a fence.
>> Well I would on that the image that we're seeing there um staff could probably confirm this but I believe that that approximately 10 feet or 15 feet that is to the east of the eastern property line of the property is probably city of Fort Worth rightway
that was an alley at one point. >> That that is correct. Yeah. So technically they have a buffer. >> I'll make a motion to approve HCLC 26131 uh with staff conditions. >> I'll second. >> There are no there are no conditions.
Okay. So, um, let's be clear on the second motion. >> Who made the second motion? >> Catch made the first. >> Okay. >> He approved with conditions. There are no conditions. Okay.
>> Okay. Then I approve it exactly how it is. >> Second. I make a motion for it to be approved exactly how it is and Tim seconds it. Great. >> Okay. So, we have a motion and a second. We have a motion by Commissioner Ketchum. Let's take this and a second by
Commissioner Holton. >> All right. Um so, uh Chairwoman Kelly, uh how do you uh vote? >> Yay. >> Um chair, uh person, sorry, I'm my first sign.
>> Okay. You're doing an amazing job. >> Um Ketchum, how do you vote? >> Yay. Uh, chairperson uh Bridenstein. >> Yay. >> Okay. Um, chairperson Malone.
Uh, chairperson. Is that right? Okay. Um, chairperson musy. >> Sorry. Uh, and chairperson tragedy >> trigger. >> Trigger. Sorry. >> Yay.
>> All right. U, motion passes. Uh 9 0. >> We're all the chair today, guys. >> Sorry. >> It's okay. It's okay. You did an amazing job. All right. So,
>> can I do that over again? >> Is it necessary? >> No, it's not necessary to do it over again. Did we get everybody though? >> You didn't get me, but but I approve. >> And what about Oh, sorry. Commissioner Tucker.
Yay. Okay. 90 um is the vote. >> Okay. That's how we learn. >> Good job. Good job. Um so then our next case is going to be HLC26-1275600. Bong.
Thank you chair. This is a new construction case in the Carver Heights Historic District on the corner of um Fel and Bong Drive. Here's some of the contributing structures around.
The proposed design for the one-story residence reflects an orientations that is consistent with the predominant character of the streetscape, including the existing patterns of spacing and building orientation. However, a few design aspects should be addressed to ensure a compatible new construction in
the in the historic district. Therefore, the staff recommends the following. That the request for a certificate of appropriateness to construct a new residence at 5600 Bong Drive be approved subject to the following conditions. That the multiple gables at the front be simplified. That
the roof pitch be lowered to reflect a more consistent roof pitch with the historic character. that the windows be simplified to a one over one configuration light pattern, that the reveal of the sighting be marked on the plans, and that any adjustments made to the drawings be submitted to the
development services department prior to the issuance of a certificate of appropriateness. This concludes the staff report. >> Thank you. Do we have anyone in the chamber to speak on this case? Seeing none, we will move to our
commissioners. Do you have any questions or concerns regarding this case? If not, are we ready for a motion? >> Laura, can you go back to the overhead view of the the property here? Okay. So, is that um Okay, I see the garage. So, the garage is on the side of the house and then there's an utility easement. Is
that just a yard then between the utility easement and the house >> on the left? >> Yeah, the left hand side. Yeah. >> Um yes. Okay. And then but on the back of the house, it's only five foot to the neighbor's property line.
>> I think that might say six feet at the back. >> Okay. I was just curious. I was make sure I was reading it right. >> Yeah. >> Are we ready for a motion? >> I'll make the motion for approval of 56 Bong Drive with staff conditions. >> I will second that.
>> And so we have a motion and a second. Our first motion is by Commissioner Ketchum. Our second is by Commissioner Bryendine. >> Thank you, Chair Kelly Gardner. How do you vote? >> Yay. >> Commissioner Malone. >> Commissioner Halden, >> yay.
